HC Deb 17 July 1890 vol 347 cc182-3

Order for Second Reading read.

* THE ATTORNEY GENERAL (Sir R. WEBSTER,) Isle of Wight

I think it right to state that we attach considerable importance to the Bill, and if the clauses to which exception has been taken could be carefully guarded there would be no objection to the Bill going forward. But we propose to take up the subject in conjunction with the Trust Companies Bill and refer it to a Select Committee, with the hope to carry it into legislation next Session.

SIR HORACE DAVEY (Stockton)

On the understanding that the Trust Companies Bill will be referred to a Select Committee with this Bill next Session I am content the Order should be discharged.

Order for Second Reading read, and discharged.

Bill withdrawn.
